Case Study: National House Building Council secures compliant, auditable file transfers with Progress MOVEit

NHBC Adopts MOVEit™ to Secure, Manage and Track Internal and External Document Transfers

NHBC, the UK’s leading warranty and standards body for new homes, needed to secure and audit the constant flow of confidential documents between internal teams and external stakeholders while meeting FCA and ISO 27000 requirements. The organisation faced unmanaged FTP and consumer file‑sharing tools, risky habits like USB/email transfers, and the challenge of proving complete visibility and compliance to regulators.

NHBC implemented Ipswitch MOVEit, a secure managed file transfer platform that enforces encryption, central control and audit trails while allowing easy web or email-based transfers. The result: full compliance with internal and industry regulations, complete visibility and control over incoming and outgoing files, elimination of unsecure file‑sharing practices, and renewed confidence that business and personal data are protected.
